Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

13 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My Porsche warranty runs out in January and I will not be able to renew it because my car is (or will be) 9 years old. Anyone know of a decent alternative warranty?

POST 2Original post

Actually, can't you renew the warranty up until it's 10 years old? So it should be possible to get a one year renewal.

POST 3Original post

The things that could go wrong it probably wont cover so is it really worth the money?.

POST 4Original post

I recently purchased a 2-year extended Porsche Approved Warranty. The "blurb" states: A 12 month Porsche Approved Warranty can be purchased and activated up until your vehicle is 9 years old from first registration or has reached 125,000 miles. A 24 month Porsche Approved Warranty can be purchased and activated up until your vehicle is 8 years old from first registration or has reached 125,000 miles. Unfortunately Daniel, because you didn't purchase a 24 month extended warranty last year, it looks as though you'll have to look elsewhere for your warranty - Warrantywise perhaps? although when I checked them out they were more expensive than the PAW...!! Good luck. Jeff

POST 5Original post

Hi all. My warranty ran out in September and I tried to take up a warranty with "Warranty Direct". It was £850ish for a year and sounded really good, - covered everything, even wear and tear. They wanted an inspection because I've done over 60,000mls. and that seemed to go well, there was no great problem found. (High tone horn u/s, oil misting round a sensor - NOT a leak) but guess what - they declined to offer cover. I queried this and even (I was worried by now!) got my OPC to check things out. The OPC didnt think anything was wrong and I sent this info to Warranty Direct, who didnt even bother to reply. Makes me wonder whether their underwriters have got cold feet about all 996's. Regards Wills

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

"Warranty Direct" - ok thanks, will not waste my time with them. I've always had a warranty for my piece of mind, and it's always paid for itself. Once or twice a year something breaks and it's major hassle free with the OPW. They take it away. They bring it back. Ummmmmmm

POST 7Original post

Danny, Look into the AA Breakdown Repair Cover.... it covers 5 claims per year up to £500..... Battery, radiators, starter motor etc Obviously not as extensive as Porsche one but as you don't qualify now, well worth the £75 on top of membership subscription. I never renewed my warranty when it expired after my purchase & banked the ££'s for any unforseen expenses & have come out on top[ ] hth Paul

POST 8Original post

Whereabouts are you Danny? If "up North" (but not necessarily) maybe the Hartech Lifetime Maintenance Plan might be appropriate.

POST 9Original post

Anyone had any dealings with Porsche customer care??

POST 10Original post

BEEN TOLD WARRANTY WISE ARE VERY VERY GOOD 996 TURBO 1100.00 IF YOU REFUSE THERE FIRST 2 OFFERS THEY KEEP REDUCING COST

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I'm down south in Hertfordshire. AA breakdown repair cover....cool, that sounds like a good option. I will investigate. Warranty wise: ok, I will check them out too. Thx

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Warranty Wise just quoted me £1289.6 for 12 months cover. That was for the top level of coverage: Platinum. Gold cover is : £959 Silver: £889 Bronze: £771 I need to read all the small print too.
